The earth says, "I will hold you, just come closer" I will hold you, just come closer"
Tears upon my altar The morning's cold I shiver Have courage now take shelter Spring is in the air is warming all is wakening Arms are opening wide
I turn to the earth and pray 'may I always know what I came here for' The forest calls My grandmothers once walked this ancient way And I know in my bones I know this from before
I'm coming home, I know in my bones I know this from before I'm coming home, I know in my bones I know this from before
What a precious gift, how could I turn away? I'll treasure all you teach me No matter what color or whatever the shade I love this learning Remind me to trust when gone is my faith For all is but fleeting The wheel keeps on turning as long grows the days
I turn to the earth and pray
When the bow is pulled taught is when the arrow springs forth x 2
I love this yearning, I love how it feels Do what you will with me, do what you will
Do what you will with me, do what you will Do what you will
